Dean Steelant Presents

It is a pleasure to welcome Dr. Wim Steelant, Dean of the College of STEM, to present our seminar this coming Friday.  Dean Steelant will discuss the role of medicinal plants in drug discovery.  I hope very much you will be an engaged audience.

Moreover, please be sure to thank Dean Steelant.  He is providing pizza for everyone in attendance.  Drinks are on your own!!!

Welcome Back to Seminar!

It is good to have all of you back for the Spring 2017 version of Seminar in Biological Sciences (BIOL 6988).  I look forward to the continued thoughtful comments on this blog.

Our first three sessions will be comprised of a video series, "Your Inner Fish".    This three-part video series, to be shown over the next three weeks. is based upon the based-selling book by paleobiologis Neil Shubin.  The videos detail the sometimes funny, but deeply profound history of human evolution.  Please, become actively engaged in the post-showing discussion led by our own Dr. Ian Renne.

The first video, “Your Inner Fish”,  can also be viewed online at the following URL: http://www.hhmi.org/biointeractive/episode-1-your-inner-fish.

See you soon!
